I woke up in the middle of the night. Understood my mom is fast asleep by the snore. I got up went up to Hope who was in deep slumber.

ME: hey Hope get up, come on we should leave

HOPE: no I need five more minutes, please !!

ME: not gonna happen come on let's go now please get up, don't you want to meet dad we should go now.

HOPE: ok wait let me get my backpack

ME: cmon let's go

we slowly climbed down the ladder which I kept in the morning and slowly walked away hoping we are unnoticed

Suddenly I hear a voice which says

"hey bastards where do you think you are running off too"

I turned behind in shock and realized that the person who called us out was shown that the boyfriend of my mom I was a bit relieved to see him because I wanted to see him one last time

I went up to him he was a stench in alcohol

ME: don't ever call me or my sister or me bastard you son of bitch

SHAWN: What are you gonna do

I knocked him out then ran over to my sister went to the bus station, we boarded the bus and left for the simple town that had the darkest chapters of my life ...... that's what I thought
